Prolonged Fasting to reduce prostate cancer and vitamin B12's effect on raising PSA.
No doctor ever discussed this relationship between B12 and
PSA
. You do hear about Biotin reducing the ability to accurately detect
PSA
in blood but not anything about B12 unfortunately.

Blood in urine and clotting 3 weeks after starting Zytiga
My oncologist wanted to do
PSA
after 6 weeks. I haven’t yet contacted her regarding the bleeding. Is there any treatment to stop bleeding? Is more water helpful? Thanks

went from -- 2.08 in January to... 1.73 in February 1.77 in March 1.78 in April His next test is 6/6. It has never gotten lower than 1.24 back in December of 2022. Is it normal for some people to not have an extremely low

Need Help with Next Gen ADT
My
PSA
last month was undetectable. I had a bilateral orchiectomy in February but was also on Erleada which I stayed on until recently. So what's changed is that I also have Stage I Multiple Myeloma. Erleada and Xandti are both Contraindicated with my MM protocol.

5/25 update on Zytiga failed
To review, after 19 months on Lupron, Zytiga, prednisone,
PSA
increased on 1/23 to 0.253, then 0.309 on 2/21. Plarify scan showed only one active site in hip which was radiated. 4/4
PSA
dropped to 0.24 which indicated the lesion was knocked out and I would be hormone sensitive and stay on Zytiga.

PSA results & supplements
It does seem in some cases to impact
PSA
results on testing but is this actually impacting the PCa cells or just the expression of
PSA
? I used to take curcumin for another condition and stopped it (and all supplements) during RT.

At last I've come to a decision.
Hi all, Well after heaps of research and asking questions and discussing everything with my RO and Urologist about treatment for my 4+4
PSA
8 PCa, I have decided to go the path of EBRT and HT.

Bone CT results.
My
PSA
currently and for the last 33 months is <0.01 Recent Bone CT scan results finds 22 mm new sclerotic metastasis in the femur. My MO said this might be normal and order a new bone scan in six months. My
PSA
is undetectable and yet the bone scan shows metastasis.

Sweet!
First
PSA
test yesterday and T level. Undetectable (less than .006 uPSA) and T level of 30. Here's to hoping it stays down. I know BCR may happen over the long run with SVI, PNI, bladder neck, and surgical margins present. Hope for the cure, but happy with the undetectable for sure.

Battling!
I take methotrexate once a week for
PSA
and folic acid on other days, so those levels are high. NHS GP doing nothing, Private GP testing again in a month (will get an early appointment this time).

Hi, looking for information sources if anyone knows of any
However a professor of rheumatology disagreed and I’ve since been diagnosed with multiple autoimmune conditions ( psoriasis,
PsA
, hashimotos, MMP). A couple of years ago I started getting strange blisters, dismissed by doctors as heat rash, chill blains (in summer 🙄) and so forth.

Doctor says husband's situation is rare
PSA
has been right around 6 for a long time. The doctors are very confused and said this is all rare. They have also said repeatedly that this is life threatening. They started him on Firmagon last week. Any others heard of situations like this?

Update on my father
He remains undetectable on the
psa
scale as of now (<0.02) Diagnosis in 2019 . I’m happy for him and this post is just to celebrate that he is doing well. He turned 70 in April and I serenaded him with Mariachi and he loved every second of that.

PSA Rising and Erleada Dose Raised
Over time he has also had breaks in treatment, but after 6 months when
PSA
started to rise, he went back on treatment, which took his
PSA
to almost immeasurable. Due to recent major surgery, his Consultant cut his dosage of Erleada down to 2 tablets per day. However, his
PSA
has risen to 8.
